Oscar Winner Alfonso Cuaron Looks Ahead to NBC Series ‘Believe’

Last night, Alfonso Cuaron took home the Oscars for best director and film editing for “Gravity,” and saw his movie win seven statues in total, including awards for film editing and cinematography.

Though “Gravity” nearly swept the technical categories, when Cuaron discusses the film, he has consistently emphasized the central performance by Sandra Bullock, who plays Ryan Stone, an astronaut fighting for her life after she becomes untethered from her space shuttle.

During his acceptance speech for best director, Cuaron said to his lead actress, “Sandy, you’re Gravity. You are the soul, the heart of the film.”
